The aim of this study was to produce the growth references for Elaziğ children aged 6-11 years. Data were collected in eight primary schools of Elaziğ in 2007. Age- and gender-specific height, weight and body mass index (BMI) references were produced with LMS (Lambda-Mu-Sigma) method and compared with reported values in an Anatolian and a metropolitan city. A total of 3342 (1634 females, 1708 males) children aged 6-11 years from among 4258 students were included in the study. Age- and gender-specific height, weight and BMI references were produced. The 3rd-97th percentiles were detected to be higher than the range of percentiles between 6-11-year-old children. We consider that this first local reference for Elaziğ will provide a useful tool for health planning and monitoring of growth and development.
